Why this home stands out

What sets 101 Crescent Drive apart is the combination of generous square footage and a three-and-a-half-bath layout that genuinely supports a busy household — no waiting in line for the bathroom on a school morning.

HOLIKNOLL and the Franklin real estate market

Franklin, Virginia is an independent city tucked along the Blackwater River in the western corner of Hampton Roads, and it carries the kind of unhurried, small-city character that's increasingly hard to find in the region. The surrounding area is defined by wide lots, mature trees, and neighborhoods where neighbors actually know each other. Crescent Drive sits within a quiet residential pocket that feels removed from traffic noise while still being just a few minutes from downtown Franklin's shops, dining, and services. Franklin's compact size — around 8,000 residents — means you're never far from anything you need, but the pace stays relaxed. The city is part of Southampton County's broader geography, giving residents access to rural landscapes and waterways alongside everyday conveniences. For anyone looking for a genuine alternative to the dense suburbs of Virginia Beach or Chesapeake, Franklin, Virginia delivers a grounded, community-oriented lifestyle with considerably more breathing room.

What's nearby

Daily life is easy from Crescent Drive. Franklin's downtown core is just a short drive away, putting grocery stores, pharmacies, and local restaurants within quick reach. The Blackwater River and nearby parks offer outdoor recreation options for weekends without needing to travel far. Regional shopping and larger retail options are accessible via US-58, the main corridor connecting Franklin to the broader Hampton Roads area. Joint Staff J7 Suffolk is roughly 40 minutes east, making this address workable for personnel stationed there. The drive connects through a mix of rural highway and suburban roads that most commuters find manageable.

For different buyers

For military families relocating

If you're stationed at Joint Staff J7 Suffolk, 101 Crescent Drive puts you about 40 minutes from the gate — a commute that many service members find very livable, especially when you're trading congestion for space and quiet. Four bedrooms handle PCS moves with ease, and a VA loan can make ownership here straightforward. Franklin's lower cost of living stretches your housing allowance further than the denser parts of Hampton Roads.

For families upgrading

Four bedrooms and three and a half baths is the layout that growing families specifically look for — enough room that everyone has their own space, and enough bathrooms that mornings don't become a negotiation. The 2,227-square-foot footprint gives you real living area, not just a number on paper. Franklin's residential streets are the kind of environment where kids can actually be outside, and the community scale means you're likely to know your neighbors within a few months.
